It's just a rumor to increase sales. I don't think Canvas will ever be discontinued. LV is focusing more on leather to catch up with Chanel.
Is canvas being discontinued??

I feel like anything with giant logos and too obvious names written along the bag such as Balenciaga or Michael Kors get dated super quickly. I don't think these giant logo designs will last long, definitely not timeless pieces. I feel bad for LV, they're going in the wrong direction producing too many trendy goods recently. Their bags don't look Louis Vuittony anymore, they look more like Gucci with fun colors/shapes/styles, Balenciaga with obvious logos, Botega with puffy bag trend...nothing is classic. Their leather bags don't hold value unfortunately. That's why I am moving toward Chanel, at least their bags are still classic to me.
I’ll bite, here are a few…

Serious shortage of canvas pieces
Am I the only person frustrated by the lack of inventory of canvas pieces? There are two handbags I want a couple SLGs and they are all "call for availability". Am I going to have to find a new brand to spend my money on? Anyone have any insight into what is happening?

Rumors of the Neverfull being discontinued?
I read something on Facebook and Instagram that someone had spoken to their SA who had just returned from a LV training (or something similar). They said that canvas is going to be limited, which I feel like has been said for a while now. They also said that the SA said that the Pochette Metis...

Damier Ebene discontinued?
On the US website when you go to filters and click materials Damier Ebene is no longer an option. When you type it in the search bar products are still listed but almost all of them say call for availability-out of stock. Does anyone know why?

DISCONTINUED LV 2017
There are rumors about the Favorite and pochette accessoires being discontinued but it seems like we can't get a straight answer! I was curious about other bags as well...

LV tries to phase out the monogram line or at least have it under limited supply because they are trying to focus on the big ticket items like Empreinte leather and going upscale like Chanel where each bag is like $5000.
BUT it hasn't been successful. People still love the monogram/ canvas line and there's just no getting rid of it. Hahaha.

Yesterday I was at my LV store and while I was waiting for my SA to finish with another client, I was sitting down and people watching. A young lady was looking at the neverfulls. They were showing her neverfulls in leather and designs. She wanted a logo. I saw the SA helping her go and open a drawer and it was completely full of neverfulls. My SA told me that they are slowly starting to come in and will continue to trickle in but LV really is trying to change their look and emphasize on other collections.
LVMH will not survive without its canvas sales.
I noticed that the Dauphine backpack was removed from my wishlist earlier this week. I can still view it online but it has been removed from my wishlist. Who knows what’s going on…
They are making more limited edition canvas with crazy price lol
It's a bit discouraging to be honest, as someone who's only started collecting because I can finally afford to - as are many people in my position we find LV as a great entry way which will in return make us more loyal customers and make us want to build up our collection more. It seems like LV doesn't really care about this and just trying to market to their big spenders. Fair enough.
I've watched a few avid LV collectors make a few YT videos discussing it. It's pretty across that they would never completely discontinue ALL canvas pieces but will 100% continue to drive up prices and significantly reduce the pieces available, of course they will keep discontinuing SOME canvas pieces but I believe those are just they find not meeting their "target income" eg Damier Azur key pouch and mini pochette is most definitely way less popular than mono or DE - so it does make sense they cut their losses on that canvas which in return will make people want to purchase more of mono/DE.
at the very least they would keep their iconic pieces like the trunks, neverfull etc.
